Generation 1. Shae Berra
1.09 Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind?
MJ: So did you read the feedback?
Shae (grinning): Yes I did. Isaac is the big favorite.
MJ: And?
Shae: He’s pretty hot. And I like that he says what he thinks. And I really like the way he looks at me. Like especially in the hot tub. Of course it’s great that he’s already maxed a career. I wish I knew what he wants to do . . . you know . . . his aspiration. But I can’t figure out a way to get him to tell me that. My romance bar is maxed with him, so I know I would love him if I let myself, but my romance bar is maxed with Sawyer and Tetsu too. Tetsu was my first best friend, and Sawyer is my current best friend, and my friendship bar is maxed with both of them. Not so with Isaac. And I can’t move forward in my Soulmate aspiration unless I marry my best friend. So either I marry Sawyer, get Tetsu back as my best friend and marry him, or become best friends with Isaac and marry him.
MJ: What about Kengo?
Shae: Watcher oshizu is right. He’s a Pearbear. I know you could fix that, and I do think he’s really good-looking, you know, above the neck. And I like that he’s a redhead. But he’s also a hot-head and I’m just not sure I want to deal with that. His red hair is just not a good enough reason to marry him.
MJ: And do you like Isaac’s hair?
Shae: I like the style. Can’t say I’m crazy about the pink tint, especially with the dark blue brows and black facial hair. But I’m sure I can talk him into a make-over.
MJ: So what are you going to do?
Shae: I’m going to go talk to them, and if all goes well, I’ll soon have a husband and two housemates. Of course you know . . . [dramatic pause] . . . I need a house to have housemates.
MJ: You go figure out the men and take some more pictures to sell. I’ll figure out the house.
Later, at The Narwhal Arms
Shae: Isaac, I have something to talk to you about. I’d really like it if you’d move in with me.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: Move to your empty lot, you mean?
Shae: It won’t always be empty. And it would be . . . you know . . . with me.
Isaac: Well, I am a great add to your household, what with my Level 10 Detective career and all. So, are we talking primary spouse and babies, or friends with benefits?
Shae: Oh we are definitely talking primary with babies.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: Ah, Cupcake! I knew you’d pick me.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: Oh really? You’re that sure of yourself?
Isaac: I think you’d have picked me even if the Watchers had picked someone else.
Shae: How did you know about that?
Isaac: Oh, Sweetheart, please! I’m the Police Chief. I know all kinds of things.
Shae: Oh, you think you’re so cool. You and your pink hair.
Isaac: You dig my hair?
Shae: Actually, I love the style. Hate the pink. And with dark blue eyebrows and black facial hair? What’s that about?
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: You don’t like my eyebrows?
Shae: I’m just saying, I’d like it better if the hair and the eyebrows and the beard all . . . matched . . . a little better.
Isaac: Anything for you, doll.

Isaac: So what do you think? Am I hot enough for a Legacy Chick . . . er . . . Founder?
Shae: I think you’ll do.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: You think I’ll do? Well I bet you didn’t know I was going to do this.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: Will you make me your Sharebear forever?
Shae: Oh, Isaac! Yes! I can’t believe you proposed on Love Day! You’re so romantic.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: We’re going to build a great Legacy together, Cupcake.
Shae: Indeed we are, my love. Indeed we are. And speaking of building . . . MJ is working on building us a house. Meanwhile, I want to bring in Sawyer and Tetsu to help with skills, aspirations, and careers. If we add them to the household as Secondary Spouses, they can help us earn points.
Isaac: As long as we all understand that there are no, shall we say, spousal privileges, for Secondary Spouses.
Shae: Of course, my love. We’ll be just friends.
Isaac (emphatically): Friends with no benefits.
Shae (giggling): Exactly. In fact, now that I know it’s your dream to be a Painter, I have an idea for how we can help them both find new girlfriends. Let’s go get them.
Later at Crick Cabana
Isaac: I’ll give you a little privacy. But I’ll be right over here if you need me.
Shae: Hey, Sawyer. I wanted to talk to you about joining my Legacy.
Sawyer: I knew we’d come to this. Ever since that day you baked me a birthday cake.
Shae: Yeah, the thing is, I’d really like for us to just be friends.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Sawyer: Just friends? Oh, so you picked Isaac as Primary Spouse?
Shae: Yes, but you're my best friend, and I really want you to do this with us.
Sawyer: Ok, yeah, it’s cool. I’m game.
Isaac: Sawyer, bro, good to have you with us!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Sawyer: Hey, thanks, man! You’re the squeamish one, right? Hey, no worries, I got the manly outdoor stuff covered.
Isaac: Well, good, because you know, as Police Chief, I’m pretty busy arresting people, throwing them in jail, taking down the bad guys. While you’re playing in the dirt and hooking little fishies, I’ll be keeping the world safe for guys like you.
Sawyer: Yeah, whatever.
Isaac (quietly): Just know this: you touch her, I kill you. The end.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Sawyer: Chill, bro. We’re just friends. We don’t even have a romance bar anymore.
Shae: If you boys are finished there, let’s go get Tetsu.
Later, at Medina Studios Apartments
Tetsu: Hey, Shae. Glad you came by. Something weird happened that I need to talk to you about. This woman named MJ whisked me up and plopped me into this dump of an apartment with some guy named Salim. She said she’s your Watcher and I should ask you about it.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: Remember that Legacy I told you about? Well, anyone who moves in has to come with no money. If you live alone, your money will come with you. So MJ dumped you here with Salim so that if you agree to move in with me, your money stays with Salim and we don’t break the rules before we even get started.
Tetsu: Oh! You want me to help you found your Legacy?!?
Sawyer: Guess again.
Tetsu: Him? You picked Sawyer?
Isaac: One more time, Cat-Brain.
Tetsu: Nooooo! You picked the squeamish guy?
Isaac: Actually . . .
Shae: Isaac, I got this.
Isaac: Ok, but I’m staying close.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: I picked Isaac because I love him and he loves me. And we’re engaged. But you were my first best friend. So can we just be friends? And will you move in with us?
Tetsu: It doesn’t feel like we’re friends when your Watcher throws me into a dump like this.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: So move in. It’s just a lot now, but we’ll have a house soon. And I plan on completing the Mansion Baron aspiration in the next couple weeks, so it’ll be a great house. And I really want you there.
Tetsu: Tell me he’s not doing pushups to look all strong and manly.
Shae: It doesn’t matter why he’s doing pushups. Say that we can be just friends and come move in with us.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Tetsu: Yeah, I’m in. Just friends.
Isaac: Without benefits.
Tetsu: I got it, dude. Chill. And I’m okay with leaving my $2700 with Salim. He needs it to fix up his place. Soon I’ll be making money like crazy as a Bestselling Author.
Back at The Shae Barre Legacy Chateau
Hi folks. MJ here with a quick catch-up. I'd like to say my camera broke, but the truth is I just forgot to take pictures of some stuff. So here's what happened:
When Shae, Isaac, Tetsu and Sawyer got home, everyone opened a gift from the gift pile I left on the lot back at Winterfest. Shae got a Duffel o’ Cash that she can’t spend. It was pretty funny. Tetsu’s box held only sadness and lies. Maybe that will be the foundation of his first book. Sawyer got a Shelly’s Shell Towel Ring that he said he will treasure. He put it in the household inventory. I sold it. Isaac got the best gift - a London’s Choice oven that he can’t wait to show off. Eventually, they’ll need to buy and upgrade the best oven in the game, but I let him keep this one for now.
By this time it was 2 am on Saturday morning of the second week; Sawyer went to gather collectibles and then to fish. While Tetsu and Isaac stargazed to get feeling inspired, I delivered an easel for Isaac and a desk, chair and computer for Tetsu since Shae sold the one Father Christmas so generously gave her. Shae made plans for a wedding on Saturday afternoon, and then took pictures throughout the night to get enough money for me to start building a house.
Saturday morning, 10 am
Isaac: Happy Wedding Day, Cupcake.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: Happy Wedding Day to you. Let’s get this party started.
Isaac: Shae, I promise to take out the garbage for you when you’re pregnant even though it gives me a disgusted moodlet.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: Isaac, I promise to never laugh at your dancing, no matter how ridiculous you look.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: I now pronounce us husband and wife.
Isaac: And that means I get to kiss you.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: I feel as if we’ve become one person.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: With this First Slice, our Gold Medal Wedding is in the bag.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: Let’s check out this cool telescope.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Isaac: That was fun. Can we do it again?
Shae: I’ll be right back. I need to go check on something.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: Success!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shae: Hey MJ! We’re going to be needing that house pretty soon!
